Happy September! 🍂

This morning at Rocky Point, killdeer and pectoral sandpipers were splashing in the sunrise. 🌅 Around this time of year things tend to get busy and time rushes by, but mornings like this remind us to slow down, take a deep breath, and appreciate what’s right in front of us. ☺️💫

Take a moment for yourself today! Step outside, look around, and let nature give you a little reset. 🌿

Happy Saturday!☀️

The question I get asked the most about being a park ranger is “so, what do you do every day?” Each day is different depending on park needs, but Saturdays are for programming.✨ Today I went on a bird walk at Nails Creek in the morning and had a skins and skulls table at Birch Creek in the afternoon. It was a fun day for learning and experiencing new things in the park! 🌳🪶
